vl6180x is temperature compensated or not??

Hello,

On the vl6180x datasheet, there is a paragraph (i.e. 2.7.4)  regarding Auto VHV calibration to regulate the SPDA sensitivity over temperature.

But on the other side, there is this AppNote AN4626 regarding range vs temperature in the extended temp range (-30 to +85°C). This app note detail the constant offset (over the distance which is good) depending only the sensor temperature. So different temperatures will give you different measures or they have just turned off the Auto VHV calibration?

Thanks for your clarification please?
